Yes. Virginia Beta is Phi Psi's third chapter, and the first fraternity at W&L, having chartered in 1855.
That chapter has produced many prominent alumni such as:
George Chamberlain - former U.S. Senator from Ohio
John W. Davis - former Ambassador to Great Britian, U.S. Representative from West Virginia, U.S. Solicitor General and the 1924 Democratic Nominee for U.S. President (would have been the second Phi Psi U.S. President.)
John Otho Marsh, Jr. - former U.S. Representative from Virginia
Also, Kappa Alpha Order was founded at W&L as Phi Kappa Chi, but changed their name because it was too close to ours.

Yeah, I think I'd heard most of that before. It's kinda funny to me.
